Among them, the growth of security business income slowed down, and the cloud business income continued to increase.
3. Short term profit fluctuation caused by income structure adjustment and early strategic investment
The net profit margin of the company in 2021 is about 4%, which is significantly lower than that in 2020. We think it is mainly caused by two reasons: 1) the adjustment of income structure, the proportion of cloud business increases, and the gross profit margin of cloud business is lower than that of security business; 2) In the early stage of strategic investment, the company’s R & D and sales expenses in 2021 increased by 38.34% and 27.91% respectively year-on-year.
